"CA aspirants had started a protest against ICAI Exam checking system on 23rd September 2019. The students have alleged that ICAI has done mistakes in checking the answer scripts of students. They have also said that they don't have a window where they can have their answer sheet rechecked."

As per regulation 39(4) of the Chartered Accountant Act,1949, the students can only get their marks re-totaled and can not get re-checked after identifying any discrepancy in the exam answer scripts.

The protest continued for 4 days and got ended on the ground that ICAI has constituted a committee to look after this matter.

This committee will comprise of the following members and resolve the issue of students as early as possible.
  • Dr. P. C. Jain, Govt. Nominee, Convenor
  • Justice (CA.) Anil R. Dave, Former Judge, Supreme Court of India
  • CA. Ved Jain, Past President, ICAI
  • CA. Amarjit Chopra, Past President, ICAI
  • CA. (Dr.) Girish Ahuja, Renowned Educationist
As of now, ICAI has asked for those copies of the May 2019 CA examination which have a discrepancy in the checking of answer scripts.
